[Intro]
D Dsus2 D G D Dsus2 D A7 D
At a Dquick shop somewhere west of Albuquerque
Got a tank of gas, a cold drink, and a A7beef jerky
The Dcashier she gave D/F#me a sGmile
So I Dstood there and I A7talked to her aDwhile
She Gsaid "where you headed, I Dhope you get there soon
I've seen 'em all day long, from 4 a.m. to A7noon
DSome are runnin' from, some are D/F#runnin' Gto
Some are runnin' Dblind, Lord, A7which one are Dyou"
Well I Dsaid "it don't appear to me to Gbe so cut and Ddried
You don't know me from Adam, can it A7be so black and white"
I sDaid "I got a plan you see I Ggot it figured Dout
How can you be so sure my dear of A7what I'm all Dabout"
She said "GI've stood in this window for Dtwenty-seven years
I can tell you cash or credit, I can A7tell your brand of beer
I can Dtell you who's liar, and the truth is D/F#plain to Gsee
That's your last Dtwenty boy, and A7don't you lie to Dme"
"There's a Ggirl in Albuquerque Dcryin' ain't there
And you're Gstandin' in a quick shop A7lyin', ain't ya...well?"
She Dhanded back my twenty, said "you know what to Gdo
DIf you drive it steady son you'll be home this aA7fternoon
DAnd I hate to judge you, I don't mean to D/F#seem unGkind
But there ain't no use in Drunnin' if you're A7only runnin' Dblind"
Nah there Gain't no use in Drunnin' if you're A7only runnin' bDlind
